But that's how we ended up with ROC competing in the Olympics and everyone just called them Russia and they doped anyway. Sadly there will be athletes that suffer because of it (though I'm sure other countries would welcome them if they were so strongly against the Russian regime that they would move on), but a line has to be drawn - there's been too much mealy mouthed prevarication in world sport. We sponsor Bora so it would impact that with Vlasov not being able to ride and he's in good form, but ethics more important IMO (personal rather than business view obvs).
